Best in class I.T. (that’s better for your budget)

Rising student numbers, rising costs, fewer resources… it’s no surprise that schools’ budgets are being stretched. At the same time, how we learn is changing. There’s more technology in the classroom, more interactivity and more innovation. There’s more of a need to make sure today’s young minds are ready for tomorrow’s world of work.

Having the latest technology is now a vital aspect of learning in the schools – something you’ll know all about if you’re in a school’s I.T. Service Department.

You now need to do more and more with less and less. Students demand it, teachers demand it, and you have to provide it.

ETB are here to help.

We’ve worked with schools up and down the country for over 20 years, helping them get the right refurbished I.T. to match their specific needs. Helping them get their hands on reliable, robust kit that they can trust. Helping them get more for their money.

And we can help you to meet (and exceed) your technical requirements, with the highest quality, highest spec of kit, with budget to spare.

Our expertise, experience and ongoing support means you get the right I.T. for your school – and up to twice as much refurbished kit for your money.

So you’re freed up from trawling for deals, and can concentrate on helping students make the most of the tech, so they can make the most of their futures.

From making it easy for schools to open credit accounts, to part exchange deals on old kit to help you make your budget go further, we know what you and your school need to make your I.T. count.

As school budgets continue to be stretched, technical innovation in the classroom is more important than ever.

Why our refurbished IT is the smart choice for schools

There’s loads of reasons why buying refurbished I.T. kit from ETB makes more sense. For a start, the kit you get is the highest quality, from the best manufacturers. And because our team inspect, examine and test it so rigorously first, we can offer you longer warranties – up to 3 years as standard.

We can reduce your installation time by making sure all firmware is the latest version before shipping out to you. And We can save you more time when it comes to finding the correct parts, as we’ve got a huge variety of spares and upgrades and compatibilities on our website. If it’s on our site, it’s in stock, so we can get you what you need the next day.* And because it comes straight from us, you don’t have to worry about things like missing cables.

If you need some help putting together what you need, our technical experts are there to help. And once you’re up and running, we can help with that too.

In an ideal world, your institution would be able to buy all-new hardware every year. As a result, refurbished hardware figures almost nowhere in your deliberations. But focusing entirely on new systems could be a serious strategic mistake. Here are three reasons you should seriously consider making refurbished hardware part of your plans for the…

Earlier this year, I made one of the biggest decisions of my career. After 11 years working for a rather large corporate, I made the move to an owner ran SME. 7 months in, I thought I’d share some of my experiences. The obvious ones are the change in environment, and the people. Sure, I’m…

A couple of months ago, I was having a conversation with someone about my job. I explained that I owned my own company, ETB Technologies, and that we are a retailer of refurbished servers, storage and networking equipment. The gentleman I was speaking with was intrigued and asked lots of questions. Is there still a…
